Former head of officiating Mike Pereira was another who said it was a bad call. Said the officials shouldn't have protected Cruz from his own stupidity. I tend to agree with that as the call could have easily gone the other way as we've seen before. I guess next time a guy slides down and then runs in for a TD, that should be negated because he "gives himself up".

Considering Cruz placed the ball on the ground and was heading back to the huddle, they made the right call. It was a judgement call.
If someone dropped a $100 bill on the ground and you saw it, would you give it back to them ethically, or would you keep it and claim "Fair game"? The call was the ethical call to make. Good job officials. |

The receiver stated in an interview that he thought he was touched. He did not "give himself up."
He incorrectly decided he was touched and went to return to the huddle. The refs protected him from his own stupidity. |

You know an easy fix to this BS? Just make a ball carrier down when their knee or elbow touches the ground, like in college.
